I would keep the first trip pretty simple and I would start where I can clearly see or understand the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and that is usually enough to tell you whether to stay shallow or start looking farther out.
Recorded fish species
On the species side, Blank Lake currently has Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch on record; so the first few setups I pack would cover weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and remember that a species list does not tell you exactly where the fish are.
My basic approach
If we were fishing Blank Lake together, I would fish the places that make sense for the species on the list and avoid chasing every rumor I heard online, then I would verify the latest bag, size, and season information before fishing.
